Definitions
- Anthraquinone dyes containing in the 4-position an aminoalkylene-trimethylammonium group are recommended in the French Patent Specification No. 1,158,839 for the dyeing of polyacrylonitrile materials. Such dyes have the disadvantage however that they are unsuitable for trichromatic dyeings. Furthermore, it is known from the French Patent Application Publication No. 2,086,050 that polyacrylonitrile materials can be dyed with anthraquinone dyes which carry in the 1-position an isopropylamino group. The dyes described in this French Patent Application Publication have however the disadvantage that they have poor build-up properties on polyacrylonitrile materials.
- the anion represented by X.sup. ⁇ can be one customary in cationic dyes, especially a halide, such as the chloride or bromide.
- dyes are known from DOS No. 2,343,561 and also from the Swiss Patent Application No. 3607/76, and can be produced by the usual methods, e.g. by quaternisation of a compound of the formula (2) ##STR3## with a quaternising agent of the formula R 4 X, wherein R 1 R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and n have the given meanings, and X represents in particular a halogen atom, such as chlorine or bromine.
- These dyes can be dyed or printed from an aqueous bath onto polyacrylonitrile materials, e.g. from an aqueous acid dye bath of which the ph value has been brought to about 4 to 5 with acetic acid.
- polyacrylonitrile material are meant, in particular, polymers containing 85 to 100% of acrylonitrile. They contain in addition, e.g., 0 to 15% of vinyl acetate, vinyl pyridine, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, acrylic acid, acrylic acid ester, methacrylic acid or methacrylic acid ester.
- the polyacrylonitrile material can be in the most varied stages of processing; for example it can be in the form of flock, carded sliver, wet cable, cable, continuous material, yarn, twine, high-bulk yarn, fabrics or knitwear.
- the blue dyes of formula (1) listed in the following Table are obtained by using, instead of 1-dimethylamino-3-(1'-methylamino-4'-anthraquinylamino)-propane, equimolar amounts of an anthraquinone compound of the formula (2) and, instead of benzyl chloride, equimolar amounts of a quaternising agent of the formula R 4 X, with the procedure otherwise being the same as before.
- a level blue dyeing having excellent properties is obtained.
- a polyacrylonitrile mixed polymer consisting of 93% of acrylonitrile and 7% of vinyl acetate, is dissolved in dimethylacetamide to the extent of 15%.
- the spinning solution is extruded in a spinning bath consisting of 40% of dimethylacetamide and 60% of water.
- the resulting tow is subsequently stretched by known methods and then freed from dimethylacetamide by rinsing with hot and cold water.
- This wet tow is dyed by immersion in an aqueous bath at 42° having the following composition:
